Today, Cameron and I were eating lunch in the cafe after his tumbling class. I had packed his lunch -- turkey on wheat, a low-fat yogurt and a banana. Now, Cameron does eat some junk food and is still obsessively plotting his next selection from his Halloween stash, but we try to teach him healthy habits. I observed curiously as several parents purchased lunch for their child at the cafe, most selecting chocolate milk or Pepsi for their preschooler. But this conversation, at the table next to us, took the cake (pardon the pun!).
Mom: Finish your Cheetos.
Preschooler: I don't want any more Cheetos.
Mom: Fine. Then you have to finish your cookies.
SERIOUSLY! Cameron dreams of me telling him to finish his cookies, for goodness sake!

Pepsi, for a pre-schooler? You've got to be kidding. Well, come to think of it, I've heard of people putting kool-aid in their babies bottles. At least the dentist's of the U.S. don't have to worry about keeping their jobs.
